Description of 1978 Jeep CJ

I am relisting this due to a winning bidder that never contacted me so if you do not intend to buy please do not bid. 1978 Jeep CJ 5 fully restored with custom 304 V8. This is the Levi's Edition which only had a limited number in production. You will not find another CJ like this one as each step of the restoration was done to ensure this would be a unique Jeep. The pictures speak for themselves and it looks even better in person. This has a low mileage 304 V8 with custom headers that lead to side exhaust. All the chrome on the exhaust still looks as good as new. Rugged Ridge Front and Rear bumpers. The Front bumper has 8500lb warn winch system with remote control and synthetic rope upgrade that functions perfectly. The Rear bumper carries the 5th wheel and tire. All wheels and tires are 33x10.50x15 and the ones on the jeep have about 2500 miles while the one on the rear has no miles on it. Everything works on this Jeep except for the horn and the windshield wipers but I never take it out on a rainy day primarily because I do not have a top for it. The only top the jeep currently has is a bikini top and I do not have the doors. The paint is original and still shows well except for the engine bay which was repainted with the same paint that the exterior has. The hood has custom painted decals. Interior has all new seats and carpet. The Jeep has a two inch body lift and a 3 inch suspension lift which was all redone during the restoration process. Rust you ask? That is the reason I bought this Jeep 10 years ago because it had no rust issues. As a matter of fact the only part that has any minor surface rust is the hood and the windshield and this is light surface rust that is cosmetic only. The hood and the windshield are truly the only parts that are not great on this jeep but they are still nice and show well. I am picky about that because I want it perfect but I no longer have the time and money to invest in this project as I have too many other projects that I am currently involved with. I do have the title in hand. $1000 dollars due via Paypal at the close of auction. Remainder of money must be paid within 7 days. I don't mind helping get the Jeep to you at the cost of $1 per mile but this is only if you need the help. I am the owner of the jeep so feel free to contact me if you want to swing by and look at it. Questions??? 901-652-8756 call or text. I will not end early so please do not ask.
